Formulation Deep Dive
Clinique's Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Eye Cream is engineered as a high-performance, multi-peptide eye treatment designed to target structural protein loss and periorbital aging. The carrier system utilizes a sophisticated emulsion base of water, tridecyl trimellitate, and glycerin, further enhanced by neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate and mangifera indica (mango) seed butter to provide a plush, occlusive finish suitable for delicate skin. The core performance is driven by a synergistic peptide complex, including acetyl hexapeptide-8, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, and palmitoyl tetrapetide-7, which work alongside sodium hyaluronate and caffeine to address dynamic wrinkles and microcirculation. The formula is stabilized via a complex polymer network of ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP copolymer and acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, utilizing a preservative system of phenoxyethanol, potassium sorbate, and sodium benzoate to ensure the long-term stability of the botanical and peptide actives.
